    Morning all.

    Glad the deer hasn't been back @punkdoc. Which gardens are you going to?

    I hope MIL is OK @Dovefromabove and you two are too. 

    We are going to the SM this morning, nearly out of milk.

    This evening we are going to Henry V in the local town, live screening from the National Theatre.

    Thanks @Busy-Lizzie.

    We are going to Cambridge botanical gardens.

    I hope you enjoy them. Cambridge is about an hour from us but we haven't been to those gardens yet, something to bear in mind.

    Good morning everyone!

    Rain, rain - nice soft spring rain.  I set up a few stakes on some cucumbers I had planted.  I also planted out Virginia Stock Delphiniums and Hollyhocks.  Yes, the snails will have been out in full force last night - what to do?

    @Dovefromabove  Stay warm and comfy -  I see on your weather report, it isn't exactly warm in Blighty at the moment.  I believe the day will warm up as it goes along.  I hope your MIL can get through this bout with just paracetamol and rest.

    @Busy-Lizzie  Isn't it funny when we are out of milk now we go to the SM - and come out with a trundler load of what we should need!!  Gone are the days of the corner shop!

    @Yviestevie   Your daughter can now get on with her life and cut her losses.  I hope she can put all that behind her.
    @Pat E  Maybe someone has started deer farming!

    Keep warm and out of trouble!!  Have a pleasant day @punkdoc

    Good morning all 😊 ☕️ 
    Well, so far so good … we feel perfectly normal (well I have the sinusy head and popping ear that I’ve had for ten days or more … but nothing else). We shall see what we shall see … we’ll phone MIL later … she’s not an early riser. Bless her, such a shame … and on her birthday too. 😞 

    Thanks for all the good wishes folks … and have a lovely trip @punkdoc 😎 

    At least I can get on with pricking out the lettuce and chard …

    Gardening in Central Norfolk on improved gritty moraine over chalk ... free-draining.

    Tui, I haven’t heard about any, but you never know. It was a very pretty one, so I hope no one shoots her.

    Hi everyone,  6 hours straight at the Allotments yesterday,  I'm paying the price of too many short visits in the winter. Loads to catch up on,  not sure if my back & other joints will hold out, we'll see.  
    Sorry your visit was cut short Dove, it really does seem likely that we'll all get it at some point now, just hope it's mild.

    Oh dear, sorry for your MIL, Dove. Hope she’ll make a quick recovery. 
    Day at home for me today. I have a parcel coming, so I’m planning to create a flower bed outside the kitchen window while I have the time. Sunny out, and warming up rapidly.

    Our last chance today to be able to take ex NDN to court. We have an "expert" coming round to assess the validity of the claim, to see whether the Judge will accept it.
